This place was great. Food was amazing, drinks were amazing, the service was fast and there was live music playing on the Friday we went there. It was designed in an old soviet style to what I can describe as having dinner in your grandma's house, which made it that bit more authentic and adding to the overall atmosphere. There bathrooms were also nicely designed with an audiobook of a Russian fairytale playing in the background. It is worth noting that whilst I had a fantastic experience, I was with Russian company, so not sure if my experience would be any different otherwise but nonetheless, I would definitely return as the food was amazing.

All the food pictures are missing, but here’s what we ordered: borscht, herring salad, pirogi, pelmeni, nastoika and medovik. Everything was delicious. The service was good as well, but the highlight was the beautiful interior. It felt like I had time-traveled to the Romanov era.

If you’re in London and want to experience real Russian culture and cuisine — this is the place. The atmosphere is truly something special, warm and full of soul. Highly recommend !

I went to have a proper Russian meal , it was my very first time. It's in a convenient location, beautiful space with lots of items around reminding of a Russian house. The food & drinks were excellent, staff very polite and kind. I would definitely recommend it

Absolutely fabulous food, if you want to try real russian authentic food, Russian 1900s Char atmosphere, lovely service i most definitely would reccomend to visit the place!

Beautiful restaurant with a great atmosphere. I went with 2 Russian friends and they say it’s pretty authentic cuisine. The dishes were light and healthy. The berry tea was amazing . Many gluten free options

From start to finish, we were so well taken care of. Our wonderful waiter Andrei looked after us the entire evening, and everything we didn’t finish was thoughtfully packed for takeaway, because honestly, everything on the menu is great, and we’ve been a bit too ambitious with the choice of food, as the portions are a good size. A special shoutout to Chef Pavel, who personally came out to let us know that the dumplings would be made fresh from scratch just for us since they had run out, such a lovely and personal touch! The food was absolutely delicious, full of authentic Slavic flavour and heart. The Borscht soup, Vinegret salad and the dumplings are my personal favourite there. As two ex-Soviet Latvians, my friend and I felt completely at home here. From the warm, cozy interior that reminds us of a Slavic living room, to the nostalgic music that made us smile (Playing lots of Laima Vaikule/ Raimonds Pauls, our Latvian icons of pop culture!). This was not just a meal, it’s a whole experience that brought us closer to home. This is hands down my favourite place in London for that special Soviet-style nostalgia, served with genuine quality and care. Highly recommend!

Great atmosphere and authentic furnishings decorations. Friendly service and absolutely great food!
